Instant Pot Bone In Ham Recipes

INSTANT POT HAM

Steps:

• Place the trivet in the bottom on the Instant Pot. Put your ham in with the fat cap facing down. Pour the canned pineapple chunks WITH THE JUICE over the ham, making sure the liquid goes to the bottom of the pot.
• Spread the honey over the top of the ham.
• Add the cloves to the Instant Pot.
• Put the lid on, set the valve to sealing and cook on high pressure for 15 minutes. Let the Instant Pot come to natural pressure before removing the lid.
• Remove the ham to a baking sheet or platter. Broil, if desired.
• Spoon out the pineapple and cloves from the pineapple juice. Set the Instant Pot to saute to thicken the glaze.
• Add cornstarch to water and stir to dissolve. Pour the mixture into the boiling pineapple juice in the Instant Pot and allow to thicken, about 4 minutes. Remove, allow to cool and pour or spoon into a serving bowl.
• Slice the ham and pour pineapple glaze over the top of the cooked ham.
• Enjoy!

INSTANT POT BONE-IN HAM

Steps:

• Pour the cans of pineapple and their juice into the pot.
• Add the cloves and mustard. Stir well.
• Place the ham on a trivet (I like to use a silicone steamer with handles) in the pot with the fat side up. If it doesn't fit well, cut off a piece and fit it into the pot along side the larger piece (you may need to reduce the cook time from the original weight as the ham will be smaller after cutting off a piece.).Make sure the ham is below the level of the pot so the lid goes on without obstruction. I can fit a 8-9 lb ham in my 8 quart Instant Pot, and a 6-7 lb ham in my 6 qt.
• Pour the honey over the ham.
• Place the lid on the Instant Pot and set the steam release knob to the Sealing position.
• Press the Pressure Cook button (or Manual) and then the + or - button to choose the cook time in minutes.
• Your ham's cook time will depend on the weight/thickness. Use High pressure. This is for a bone-in UNCUT ham.4-5 pounds - 12 minutes plus 25 minutes Natural Release6-7 pounds - 17 minutes plus 25 minutes Natural Release8-9 pounds - 22 minutes plus 25 minutes Natural Release(For a spiral cut ham, only cook 3 minutes with a 15 minute NPR).
• When cooking cycle has ended, let the pot naturally release pressure for 25 minutes. Then manually release the remaining pressure by turning the steam release knob to Venting.
• When the pin in the lid drops, open the lid and take the temperature of the ham. It should read 100°-115° F which is fine for a fully cooked ham. Remember, you are just reheating it.If the ham is below 85° F, place the lid back on and pressure cook it for another 3 minutes and 10 minutes Natural Release.
• Carefully remove the ham to a baking sheet.
• Ladle the liquid from the pot to a fat separator (straining out the pineapple chunks) and discard the extra fat. Then add the defatted liquid and pineapple chunks back into the pot.
• Turn on the Sauté setting (Low or Less temperature).
• Mix in half of the brown sugar. Taste and adjust sugar, mustard, or cloves, if desired.
• Mix the corn starch and reserved pineapple juice together to make a slurry. Add the slurry to the simmering liquid and stir until it is thickened. Then turn off the pot.

INSTANT POT® HAM

Steps:

• Place ham on a trivet and set it inside a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Pour crushed pineapple over ham. Sprinkle brown sugar and drizzle maple syrup on top. Secure the lid with vent closed.
• Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 35 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Remove ham and trivet. Cut ham into slices and place on a plate.
• Select Saute setting on the pressure cooker. Mix cornstarch with water until smooth. Stir mixture into the pot, bring to a boil, and stir until thickened. Pour sauce over the ham.

INSTANT POT® HONEY-GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Pour water into the steel basin of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Place the ham, sliced side-down, into the pot.
• Mix brown sugar, honey, mustard, Worcestershire, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves together in a bowl. Pour glaze on top of the ham. Close and lock the lid.
• Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 10 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions for 10 minutes. Release any remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
• Drain liquid from the pot into a bowl and set aside. Allow ham to rest for at least 10 minutes; remove to a platter.
• Select Saute function and add the liquid back into the pot. Cook until reduced to your liking, 5 to 10 minutes. Pour sweet sauce on top of ham slices when serving.
